Is that the Gambit edition?

Essential Jazz Classics.  But I think that may be a different name for the same company.  It's very much a "grey market" edition.

But it's also the only version -- to the best of my knowledge -- that has all the takes in unedited form.

Trust me, they got it from somewhere else, possibly/probably Japan.

These types of companies never do their own work.

I hear you.  I generally try to avoid these sorts of discs.  But -- to use your term  -- "porn" is sometimes difficult to resist.

Louis Armstrong - The Great Chicago Concert 1956: Complete (Columbia/Legacy)

GREAT indeed.

Yep.  "Same difference," as we say 'round these parts.

Had a discussion at SHF about Fresh Sound and Gambit. IMHO Gambit is located in  Andorra and Fresh Sound in Spain. For collectors no great difference but for the lawyers.  BTW the very rare Bill Evans Concert at Bad Hönningen (I was among the selected guests for this private concert one the day before Evans birthday at the private house of architect Fritz Feltens) was also issued completely on Gambit (8 years after the concert was recorded at the private home by a mobile recording unit of german radio WDR)  and in a shorter version (minus some tracks) on another (official) label.

Hey, let's not defile the well-meaning and ethically produced porn of the world (where and if it exists...) by associating it with this sort of piffelooxication.

THIS is EuroMusiPorn, a category quite unto itself!

Not that I don't understand such temptations myself. But...you should never pay for porn. Never. Ever.
